LA BOHÈME:Puccini
Original Air Date: 01/24/1970
Cleva; Tebaldi, Tucker, Carson, Walker, Siepi
SID.18410422
SR: Late Tebaldi and late Tucker..but still heads and above much of the competition in these roles. As an added bonus, we get Cesare Siepi’s Colline.
All of this conducted by Fausto Cleva – sometimes pooh-poohed as a “mere repetiteur.” There was no one who knew more about Italian opera style and who always transmitted it to his cast, his orchestra and the listeners.
RWW: This performance is not exactly a “youthful” special, but it is a memento of two veterans together in this opera. Siepi is a classy addition. A very special Colline.
